Abstract :
The present study aims to evaluate how commercial video games can foster hypothetico-deductive reasoning in the everyday life. For this, we studied Multiplayer Online Battle Arenas while developing a methodology based on multi-design and multi-level data triangulation between game videos, eye tracking, game talks, and cued retrospective protocols. The studies take place in a simulated-naturalistic environment.
